Yip draw is definitely the best result-then a win in switzerland would win us the group.
If the Switz win we can only get second and def dont want a Russia win cos then we could end up with nothin.
Am I right in thinking, Russia win tonight and against GeorgiaQuote:

Yes - if we win in Basle we're guaranteed the playoff .Quote:

Switzerland need 1 win or 2 draws to win the group.
Georgia need 2 wins to probably take the playoff.
Loads of permutations but it will be a lot clearer this evening
Does anyone know if its on any of the satellite channels ?
Since it's on an RTÉ channel there's a possibility that Setanta might show it. Shepards Bush/Hammersmith area has a lot of pubs which show that. Waxy O'Connor's on Rupert Street near Piccadilly might show it. Ring and ask is all I can suggest.Quote:

I just saw Brian Kerr hasnt flown out to the game after all-something about the flight been delayed due to air traffic controls and as a result he wouldnt have made it.
Lucky it's on RTÉ then.Quote:

Knowing Brian he probably has a contact over there who can spy for him.

Republic of Ireland manager Brian Kerr’s intended trip to Moscow this morning to watch tonight’s Euro 2004 Championship qualifier between Russia and Switzerland was called off.
The jet operator, Westair, were advised prior to departure that as a result of Russian Air Traffic Control restrictions the flight would be delayed.
This delay would most likely have resulted in Kerr not making the match in time and the decision was taken not to travel.
